Schizophrenia (SCZ) is a serious neuropsychiatric disorder with a complex etiology. Neuroinflammation has received much attention as a crucial contributor to the pathogenesis of SCZ. S-propargyl-L-cysteine (SPRC), a synthesized analog of S-allyl-L-cysteine, increases endogenous hydrogen sulfide (H2S) synthesis and exerts potent antioxidative and anti-inflammatory effects. However, its potential...
